Abstract

This paper presents a toolset for GUI testing of Android applications. The toolset is centered on a GUI ripper that systematically explores the GUI structure of an application under test with the aim of firing sequences of user events and exposing failures of the application. The toolset supports the execution of a testing procedure that automatically performs crash testing of subject applications and provides test results made of several artifacts. The paper illustrates some examples of using the toolset for testing real Android applications.
